SASKATOON ROTARY CLUBS PRESENTS ADVENTURES IN TECHNOLOGY 2009

Dear Rotarians:

The five Rotary Clubs of Saskatoon and Rotaract are again pleased to present a very exciting and rewarding opportunity for selected high school students across Western Canada.

ADVENTURES IN TECHNOLOGY will involve up to 37 high school students (32 from out of town) in an intense four and one-half day exploration of advanced technology, research, development and applications. During their visit, participants will be able to open the doors to an exciting array of some of Canada's finest corporations and research facilities including the University of Saskatchewan, Areva Resources Ltd, Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan & the Canadian Light Source Synchrotron to name just a few. Of course, the students will also be treated to the best in Saskatchewan hospitality and have the opportunity to make new friends from across the western provinces.

The registration fee is $300.00 plus travel expenses to and from Saskatoon. Local Rotarian families will billet the students during their stay in Saskatoon and all food and social events will be provided.

This year’s event will be held from Monday, April 27 to Friday, May 1, 2009. Students are asked to arrive on Sunday April 26, 2009 (Welcome Reception & Ice-Breaker starts at 6:30pm). We invite your club to participate by sponsoring a student. Please complete the attached sponsor application form and return it, along with your registration fee by January 31, 2009.

Please note that interest in our program is very strong and the enrollment is limited to 32 out of town students. Applicants are accepted into the program upon receipt of the sponsor application form and registration fee on a first come, first receive basis.

In summary, ADVENTURES IN TECHNOLOGY is a comprehensive, carefully planned four and one- half day event that will enhance each participant’s awareness and understanding of technology, the many ways it affects our lives, and the opportunities it holds for tomorrow.

Please pass this information to the Rotarian in your club who looks after Youth and/or Adventures Programs. I look forward to hearing from you and would be happy to answer any questions you might have.

Yours in Rotary,
